Family Star acknowledges the FY24 finding related to labor allocation. During that fiscal year, the organization experienced several operational challenges, including insufficient documentation and oversight of labor allocation reporting. These administrative issues were contributing factors in a broader leadership restructuring, which included the elimination of five middle management positions. As a result, responsibilities for labor allocation were reassigned to ensure proper oversight. Since that time, Family Star has already taken intentional steps to strengthen internal controls and improve the accuracy and consistency of key administrative functions. Labor time reporting is now aligned with organizational slot distribution across programs and funding sources to ensure compliance and transparency moving forward. To further reinforce accountability, we have implemented a new monthly monitoring procedure. On the first Wednesday of each month, the Senior Director of Community Partnerships and the HR Specialist jointly review and archive labor allocation records. This process ensures allocations are preserved, updates are made in a timely and compliant manner, and labor costs are supported by accurate documentation. These measures are designed to increase transparency, enhance internal controls, and ensure labor allocations are properly managed going forward.

2024-107 Review of Reimbursement Request Did Not Detect an Error in Amount Reported Condition: The September 2024 reimbursement request included wages paid in August 2024 instead of September 2024 in error. This is not a systemic problem but an isolated occurrence resulting in an immaterial difference in the amount reimbursed and the amount that should have been requested for September 2024 wages paid. Corrective Action Planned: We acknowledge the finding and have strengthened our review process for reimbursement requests to prevent similar errors. Finance staff verify payroll periods against reimbursement periods before submission, and supervisors perform an additional review. This process includes careful cross-checking against the appropriate pay periods. This was an isolated occurrence with immaterial impact, but corrective steps will ensure accuracy in future requests.

2024-106 Lack of Time and Effort Documentation Policy Condition: Time and effort reporting on actual hours spent on individual grant projects used to support the budgeted allocations of employee salary for each grant are not being kept. This is a systemic issue as a procedure for documenting time and effort by employee to justify the allocation of salaries across grants has not been put in place. Corrective Action Planned: We acknowledge the finding and have adopted a formal Time and Effort Reporting Policy. Standardized timesheets will be implemented and staff trained within 60 days, with supervisors reviewing submissions. The Finance Manager will monitor records monthly and conduct quarterly reviews to ensure compliance going forward.

Type of Finding: Significant deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance relating to inadequate allocation of wages to federal programs may result in noncompliance with grant regulations. Views of Responsible Officials: Management accepts this finding. Effective internal control over the allocation of wages to federal programs ensures we remain in compliance with allowable costs. In one region, two employees in ADP were not set up correctly to ensure the proper allocation of hours worked per the timesheets to the associated job cost centers. Training of staff along with additional supervision over allocations would likely have prevented this error. Corrective Action: The set up of all employees has been reviewed and now corrected. In addition, new employee set up will be reviewed by a designated staff member to ensure consistency. A new report has been developed that will be reviewed for each pay period to ensure all employees, allocating their time are set up properly.

2024-001 Head Start – Assistance Listing No. 93.600 Significant Deficiency in Internal Control Over Compliance and Noncompliance – Inadequate Payroll Review and Documentation B. Allowable Costs/Cost Principles Recommendation: The auditor recommended that management establish detective controls to ensure payroll expenses are being charged consistent with established policies and approved allocations. Action Taken: We agree with the recommendation and portions of the plan were implemented in February 2024, while the remainder was implemented in July 2025. In January 2024, the ELI team reviewed team members and their respective salary allocations, specifically for the Early Head Start program. Allocations were documented and updated in Axiom, ELI’s payroll system of record. Those allocations were then updated in early February 2024 and regular meetings to review, document and update allocations as needed, have since been held on a consistent basis. The secondary piece, corrected in July 2025, was a system correction for allocation of PTO and Holiday pay, those were not being allocated to EHS consistent with the agreed upon allocations and not going to EHS as they should have been. This has been corrected in Axiom and the ELI accounting team will now perform regular reviews to confirm allocation in agreement with the agreed upon amounts. In addition, correcting entries for 2024 and 2025 will be made by August 31, 2025.

Gateway Domestic Violence Services, in 2024, was utilizing paper timesheets that included the funder allocation for each staff person. The funder allocations were then entered into QuickBooks spreadsheets. In February of 2025, we engaged with Paychex Payroll Services which utilizes simple online software built to streamline payroll and automate taxes. It does include a job costing process that allows for identifying payroll costs to be distributed appropriately to funders. This electronic payroll system decreases the chances of human error. Also in August of 2025, there is a change in personnel to Finance & Operations Director rather than Finance and Operations Manager. The new position comes with increased responsibilities and increased skills. This position will be responsible for reconciling payroll allocations from Paychex to Payroll allocations in QuickBooks to government funding reports to ensure accuracy. These changes along with the systems that we have had in place should help prevent this issue from being repeated.

Additionally, for an employee who works in part on a federal program whose administrative funds have not been consolidated or on activities funded from other revenue sources, the School Board must maintain time and effort distribution records in accordance with 2 CFR section 200.430(i)(1)(vii) that support the portion of time and effort dedicated to (a) the consolidated cost objective, and (b) each program or other cost objective supported by non-consolidated Federal funds or other revenue sources. Employee pay should be reviewed to ensure that payment amount is correct. Employee attendance should be documented on a consistent basis. Condition found: In testing expenditures over federal programs, the following exceptions were noted: Title I: In testing 19 payroll transactions for the Title I program, there were 4 exceptions noted where the time certifications were completed, but not in a timely manner. Child Nutrition: In testing 17 payroll transactions for the Child Nutrition program, the following exceptions were noted:  3 exceptions noted where the time certifications were completed, but not in a timely manner.  3 exceptions noted where the timesheet for the employee was not reviewed by a Supervisor.  5 exceptions noted where the employee was not paid in accordance with the salary schedule.

View of Responsible Official (This was implemented at the end of the 22/23 Audit, however, that audit was completed after the beginning of the next fiscal year. Therefore, the timing overlapped, and the changes implemented were not yet evident at the beginning of the new fiscal year.) Currently, based on the capacity of the Organization’s staffing pool, the most efficient and effective means of review and reconciliation of cash disbursements and payroll is the Organization’s Board Chair and CEO reviewing the cash disbursements and payroll every two weeks, prior to payments being made. The Organization’s Director of Operations forwards the Board Chair and CEO a listing of cash disbursements and payroll due with the suggested payments. The Board Chair and CEO each will ask questions and formally “approve” or “disapprove” each transaction, prior to any disbursements. Once reviewed, the CEO will return the reviewed materials to the Director of Operations with the amounts to pay. Also, the Organization’s outsourced accountant will review and approve each monthly bank reconciliation and bank statement for all Organizational accounts, as well as the monthly credit card statements. The outsourced accountant does not have the ability to access the monthly bank statements or make purchases.

CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN July 17, 2025 Health Resources and Services Administration Jewish Child Care Association of New York (d/b/a JCCA) and Affiliated Organization respectfully submits the following corrective action plan for the year ended June 30, 2024. ____________________________________________________________________________________ CohnReznick LLP 1301 Avenue of the Americas New York, NY 10019 Audit Period: June 30, 2024 The findings from the June 30, 2024 schedule of findings and questioned costs are discussed below. The findings are numbered consistently with the number assigned in the schedule. FINDINGS – FINANCIAL STATEMENT FINDINGS Finding 2024-001 – Account Analyses MATERIAL WEAKNESS Recommendation We recommend that the Agency implement policies, procedures and controls to ensure that all accounting records are analyzed and reconciled on a monthly basis. In addition, the Agency should follow the policies and procedures for the proper and timely review of all journal entries. The personnel reviewing the journal entries should agree the journal entries to the source documents or underlying support and should document his or her review of the journal entry. Action Taken Management of the Agency is in agreement with this finding. The Agency experienced turnover in key positions of the finance department and therefore they have outsourced their finance function to BTQ Financial from the end of November. BTQ is focusing on the implementation of reconciling the accounts on a more routine and timelier basis which is consistent with financial policies and procedures of the Agency. Revised Policy and Procedures that incorporate this finding will be in place by 8/1/2025. Finding 2024-002 – Information Technology – General Control Activities SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCY Recommendation We recommend the Agency follow their policy for password age. We also recommend that the Agency enable multi-factor authentication. Lastly, we recommend the Agency perform a risk assessment over the information technology environment. We recommend a written risk assessment and penetration test to be performed annually and vulnerability scans to be performed quarterly. Action Taken Password policy had been updated with stricter complexity and retention requirements, aligning to or exceeding best practices. Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) had been implemented on all VPN and remote access to JCCA resources. HIPAA Risk Assessment will be completed by July 31, 2025. A SOCaaS (Security Operation Center as a Service) with continuous internal and external vulnerability scanning and assessment will be implemented by July 25,2025. A contract to purchase network security and email security solutions was signed and will be implemented in October 2025. Penetration testing is planned for Q1 2026 after all the mentioned security enhancements are in place. FINDINGS – FEDERAL AWARDS PROGRAM AUDIT U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Unaccompanied Alien Children Program (Assistance Listing Number 93.676), FAIN # 90ZU0385, 90ZU0603, 90ZU0567, and 90ZU0536, for FY 2024 - Significant Deficiency Finding 2024-003 – Procurement, Suspension and Debarment Recommendation We recommend that the Agency train its personnel in relation to the exclusion screening and proper documentation thereof and that the Agency conduct regular reviews to ensure the completeness of exclusion search documentation. Action Taken As per the Purchasing policy, new vendors are sanctioned by the Purchasing department prior to the creation of a purchase order. Compliance conducts a monthly sanction review of all vendors. Sanction checks have now been completed for the vendors previously missed, and we have strengthened internal controls to ensure all newly added vendors are screened moving forward. In addition, employees whose salaries are charged to federal grants are also subject to suspension and debarment checks. JCCA ensures to actively conduct these checks in compliance with federal regulations. U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Unaccompanied Alien Children Program (Assistance Listing Number 93.676), FAIN # 90ZU0385, 90ZU0603, 90ZU0567, and 90ZU0536, for FY 2024 - Significant Deficiency Finding 2024-004 – Activities Allowed or Unallowed, Allowable Costs/Cost Principles Recommendation We recommend that the Agency strengthen their internal control policies and procedures to ensure that the allocations per the time and effort attestation forms agree with the amount charged to the grant per the general ledger. Action Taken We acknowledge the recommendation and recognize the importance of aligning time and effort attestations with the amounts charged to grants in the general ledger. We ensure that any changes to employee allocations are reflected timely in our payroll and accounting systems to maintain consistency between documentation and financial records. Additionally, we are reviewing our internal controls and procedures to identify any process gaps and reinforce communication between HR, Payroll, and Finance teams. Going forward, we will enhance oversight to ensure that updates related to employee funding sources are promptly recorded, which will help maintain accurate grant reporting and compliance with applicable regulations The anticipated completion date of this action is August 1, 2025.

Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions A. Improved Documentation for Basis of Cost Allocation for Employee Time Charges Per the Associate Director of Contract Accounting, the Foundation reviewed all the invoices on the 1st and 2nd quarters of 2025 and noted that there were no other adjustments made relating to the invoices within the audit year ended December 31, 2024. To further strengthen internal controls for reimbursement requests, the Foundation will implement the following procedures: 1. Prior to submission of reimbursement requests to the funder, the Contracts Manager for each grant will review the supporting documents and invoice template to ensure only final and fully supported data is invoiced. 2. Continue the practice of reviewing salary costs allocated to each grant in the payroll system, with the percentage charged to the funder to ensure only fully supported costs are billed. B. Improved Documentation of Routinary Reviews of Employee Hours Charged to Grants Per the Associate Director of Contract Accounting, the Foundation has a process to review staff allocated to a grant to ensure that hours and salary costs are allocated correctly at least quarterly, but also additional adjustments and reclasses may be posted at year-end to ensure completeness and that all expenditures are posted in the correct SEFA period as part of the SEFA review process. C. Timecards Lacking Employee and Manager Approvals Per the Associate Director of Contract Accounting, the Foundation has a process in place to ensure that employees and managers approve timecards every pay period and will continue making enhancements to this process to ensure that gaps do not occur subsequently.
